My work with children is informed by:

• A background in education 
• Specialist training in child hypnotherapy 
• Selective mutism training with Maggie Johnson 
• Mindfulness and nervous system awareness 
• Anxiety-informed therapeutic approaches 

Children are never pressured to talk, participate, or engage before they feel ready.

Building emotional safety, trust, and regulation always comes first.

Sessions are calm, supportive, and adapted to the child’s age, needs, and comfort level.

Depending on the individual child, sessions may include:

• Gentle relaxation approaches 
• Imaginative and creative techniques 
• Storytelling approaches 
• Calming strategies 
• Confidence-building support 
• Emotional regulation tools 

Many children engage best when support feels natural, flexible, and non-pressured.

When a child is struggling with anxiety, the impact is often felt across the whole family.

Part of my approach involves supporting parents and carers to better understand anxiety responses, while helping create calm, supportive environments around the child.

Small changes in emotional safety, consistency, and regulation can make a meaningful difference over time.

My work is offered with clear professional boundaries, ethical awareness, and a strong focus on emotional safety and individual wellbeing.

Hypnotherapy support does not replace medical, psychological, or specialist care where this may be needed. 

I also hold an enhanced DBS certificate as part of my work supporting children and young people.
